Stop At: Rijksmuseum, Museumstraat 1, 1071 XX Amsterdam The Netherlands

Holland’s version of the Louvre is a must, and this tour will introduce first-time visitors to the impressive and expansive collection that curates Dutch history over the centuries. For those who aren’t familiar with Dutch culture, we will explore its rich and vibrant past through a selection of paintings and artifacts from the 8000 objects on display. We’ll explore familiar names like Rembrandt while discussing lesser known items like 17th century dollhouses and Vermeer’s portrait of domesticity, “The Milkmaid.” There’s even a fascinating 19th century library containing more stories than we could ever tell. By the end, you’ll have a good overview of the museum’s collection and you may even know how to pronounce its name correctly.

Janet was out tour guide for the 2.5 hour tour of the highlights of the Rijksmuseum! It was a fantastic tour and Janet was so professional and informative and we learnt a huge amount about the building itself as well as the Dutch Masters and many of the other artefacts on display I would highly recommend this tour and if you are lucky enough to have Janet as a guide then you are in for a fabulous time!!

I highly recommend this tour if you are visiting the Rijksmuseum as it is a large museum and our tour group was a good size (<8 ppl). I learned a lot from Janet our tour guide.

It was a first rate experience. The museum was crowded at places but Frank was able to dodge and weave so that we could get a good view of the different galleries and "The Nightwatch". His long experience as a guide and art history education was a great asset to the tour.
